According to NP in the Pulse, there was a sender who was trying to collect every Zelda game. He thought the Philips CD-I game didn't count. NP wrote:

A.K.A. The games sucked

You know, most of the time in the scenes in that Zelda, they move like they're trying to use sign language for the layer. WTF?

... Uh... Nope.

You know, the cutscenes remind me of very amateur newgrounds videos.

Zelda = for everyone. Screw CD-I, Zelda is for everyone, and they ruined it. Left a bad mark on Zelda's pristine reputation. (Well, WW sort of did, too, eh..)

DIE CD-I.

It looks to me like there were three of them. I'm going to just copy-paste from wikipedia about them.

Link: The Faces of Evil
Quote:
 
The lands of Hyrule are at last peaceful, so what more can a hero do? Link, feeling increasingly useless in this safe environment, has no idea that the far away island of Koridai has been taken over by his old nemesis, Ganon. Worse, he has kidnapped the Princess of Hyrule, Zelda, and is holding her captive there. A mysterious wizard visits Link on a magical flying carpet to inform the Hero of the dire situation. Only Link, with the aid of the Book of Koridai, can defeat Ganon, so Link willingly boards the carpet, and the two fly to Koridai... Many backgrounds were taken from the Zelda Cartoon and used as backdrops in the game.


Zelda: The Wand of Gamelon
Quote:
 
The King of Hyrule has embarked on a journey to make a treaty with Duke Onkled, but somehow has disappeared en route. Link, in true hero fashion, sets out to rescue him. He also vanishes, and so it is left up to Princess Zelda to save the duo, and to find out why they went missing in the first place.


Zelda's Adventure
Quote:
 
Hyrule is in the middle of the Age of Darkness, as Gannon (in this game it is spelled with 2 "n"s) has kidnapped the Hero, Link, and unleashed his rule over the land of Tolemac. (Which is Camelot spelled backwords) Princess Zelda sets out to save the young adventurer, and learns from the astronomer Gaspra that she must first collect the seven celestial signs before she can conquer the dark king and bring Hyrule to an Age of Lightness.

The story is told mostly through live-action FMV scenes filmed in the Netherlands.


EDIT - The second two games actually play as Zelda instead of Link. It's a great idea, but... They screwed it over.

They sound corny but I agree that it would be a good idea to have Zelda as a playable character.

I would love a Zelda game where you get to play as Zelda and maybe save Link or something, but only if Nintendo made it. Not some crappy 3rd party on a CD-I.

You know what would be good? If, even if it was a game where you play as Link, you could have parts that you play as Zelda. Like, certain parts of dungeons or mini-games or something.
